• After witnessing the continued decrease of involvement in the SpotterNetwork staff in serving SN members with troubleshooting issues recently, I have unilaterally decided to terminate the relationship between SpotterNetwork's support and Stormtrack. I have witnessed multiple users unable to receive support weeks after initiating help threads on the forum. I find this lack of response from SpotterNetwork officials disappointing and a failure to hold up their end of the agreement that was made years ago, before I took over management of this site. In my opinion, having Stormtrack users sit and wait for so long to receive help on SpotterNetwork issues on the Stormtrack forums reflects poorly not only on SpotterNetwork, but on Stormtrack and (by association) me as well. Since the issue has not been satisfactorily addressed, I no longer wish for the Stormtrack forum to be associated with SpotterNetwork.

    I apologize to those who continue to have issues with the service and continue to see their issues left unaddressed. Please understand that the connection between ST and SN was put in place long before I had any say over it. But now that I am the "captain of this ship," it is within my right (nay, duty) to make adjustments as I see necessary. Ending this relationship is such an adjustment.

    For those who continue to need help, I recommend navigating a web browswer to SpotterNetwork's About page, and seeking the individuals listed on that page for all further inquiries about SpotterNetwork.

    From this moment forward, the SpotterNetwork sub-forum has been hidden/deleted and there will be no assurance that any SpotterNetwork issues brought up in any of Stormtrack's other sub-forums will be addressed. Do not rely on Stormtrack for help with SpotterNetwork issues.

    Sincerely, Jeff D.

Just saw this on Morning Media on KSN, and it's really cool. Sadly I noticed the one actually linked on their page was posted (well, stolen and reposted since I hardly believe he speaks Japanese) by our favorite HAARP-Ring tin-foiler dutchsinse, so I went and found another copy to link here so as not to give him hits/ad revenue.

What's really interesting is that you can see the three large quakes - almost like 'warning shots' - that fired off the coast of Japan starting 48 hours before the 9.0 and the barrage of aftershocks that followed.

Awesome animation, though I did see it yesterday when it appeared on one of the Reddit type sites. I piped it out to our big-screen TV... my 8-year old loved it. You can really see how the November 5 earthquakes in Oklahoma barely registered compared to what went on in Japan.

One of the things seismologists are wondering about the Japan quake is "Why wasn't it bigger?" Only about half of the fault system actually ruptured last year. The southern half (closer to Tokyo) didn't rupture and still seems stressed. The question for Japan - and any other subduction zone - is, how many years will it be before the next megathrust quake?
